Incense Herbs

Incense herbs – seeds for open‑pollinated plants of aromatic, resinous and versatile herb species that are ideal for burning as incense. Characterful, robust and intensely fragrant plants that develop distinctive aromas through their leaves, shoots or flowers and enrich mixed‑crop systems with traditional smudging qualities. Ideal for cultivation in the garden, raised bed, balcony and on sunny to semi‑shaded herb beds. Sowing takes place, depending on the species, by direct sowing or pre‑cultivation from spring to autumn.
